Think of this scanner as a USB storage device, like a flash drive as pictured below. It is not a twain based scanner
so you cannot use any program to scan from it. When you scan it stores the images in memory until you
connect it to the computer where is shows up as another drive letter in My Computer as pictured below.

The scanner is designed to be used disconnected from the computer until it is time to upload the images stored
in memory. That could be the 512 MB internal memory, a USB flash drive or a SD card. With these last two
when you can leave those plugged into the scanner and connect the scanner to the computer you will see two
devices connected.

When you turn on the scanner the light will flash as it powers up. Wait for it to turn a steady green before
attempting to scan. If you press the button again it will turn yellow indicating that it is now scanning at 600 DPI
rather than 300 DPI. When it is inactive it powers down and shows a pale yellow light.

You can access these in the Readiris/Cardiris software by going to
Open in Readiris or File > Load Card images in Cardiris and
navigating to this location and selecting all or selected images.

Readiris
